Mary inspires us. Guardian Angels guide us. For 175 years in the US and more than 200 years worldwide, our mission keeps growing.Today, October 2, our Marianist Family celebrates the Memorial of the Holy Guardian Angels and the anniversary of the establishment of the first novitiate for the Society of Mary. In 1817, after a retreat at St. Laurent, Bordeaux. five members of the Bordeaux Sodality approached Fr. Chaminade and expressed an interest in taking vows as vowed religious. These five were joined by others for the novitiate. Happy Foundation Day to the Society of Mary!

I sent a DM about this. No one has responded to my post (below) or to my message.

Sharing a wonderful opportunity to donate a crucifix that can be offered to young people desiring a closer relationship with God. The Marianist Retreat & Conference CenterWe have a problem. It's a good problem, but a problem nonetheless. On yesterday's retreat, we had crucifixes available on our free stuff table, and high school freshmen took all 15 of them, thus deleting our supply. So far this school year we have given away over 70 crucifxes on 6 youth retreats. If you can support this endeavor, there is a link with more info in the first comment. It's so powerful that teens want to have crucifixes in their homes and in their rooms, isn't it? ... See MoreSee Less

I love this idea for our Marianist students at Gross Catholic in Omaha. Thank you for sharing, so I can borrow the idea 🙂

I think Marian Library can help!

"And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:7 📖

Take everything to God in prayer. Joys are more joyful. Fear is calmed. Anxiety melts away. God's peace is what is needed in these turbulent times.

When was the last time you experienced this much joy?

Our Marianist Brothers in Hawaii are part of a large, vibrant community that came out in force to celebrate the 2024 Jubilarians with a mass and gathering. The Hawaiian people have many meaningful and poignant traditions, including the placing of a flower lei around someone's neck as a sign of affection and unity. Our Jubilarians were covered in leis and the love of their community as they celebrated their lives of joy surrounded by an interconnected Marianist Family.

We celebrate with Fr. Timothy Dwyer this year as he marks 70 years of profession as a Marianist. With so many years of memories to treasure, one thread connects it all, the importance of family.

Fr. Timothy looks back with "profound gratitude" for being raised in a holy family and then choosing to become a Marianist and spend his life in service to others. He was profoundly impacted by the mentorship, care and concern of the Marianists he encountered his youth who inspired him to a vocation to live and work with others "committed to embodying the spirit of Jesus and Mary in their lives."
